Default New Crawler Rebuild

Well After crawling for a while I though it would be a good time to completely strip my crawler down to the axle's and the tranny and build from the ground up "again". So with a little bit of think and a whole lot of money I am going to give you the list of what all is going to be going on this beast. I am also going to post pictures of the build in stages. I am not going to do part by part because I really don't like taking pictures that much lol. Anyway here we go.

1 Gatekeeper GS2 Chassis (Thanks Austin this thing is great!)
2 Axial Axles
3 Axial Tranny
4 DNA Dig unit
5 Integy V11 Professional 45t Motor
6 CC Sidewinder
7 CC BEC unit
8 Hitec 225 dig servo
9 Hitec 645 turning servo
10 Deans Wet Noodle wire
11 Deans Connectors (for every connection)
12 Traxxas HD Drive Shafts
13 CKRC (I Think) HD Yokes
14 Hot Racing Dark Knight Narrow Rims
15 3PM Fasst Radio and Receiver System
16 Losi Rock Claws
17 Not sure on Foam Yet (Wouldn't mind suggestions)
18 6 Sub C cells for now I may go 11 volt lipo very soon.
19 Custom Made By Me Murdered Out Linkz for my uppers and lowers
20 Losi Crawler Shocks

Well that is it for the big Stuff I'm sure your not interested in the screw types and little parts. Feel free to comment if you like and please check back as I build on it I am going to be posting Pictures. This is my first Pic shows some good progress on the build.

Well I haven't had a chance to run it yet but I'll tell ya this It is a fine crafted item. I really like the looks and the feel of it. I wasted money on a CKRC Rockstar chassis and now I am just happy to have what seems to be a very nice chassis.

OK all first wheel done!! Man these things are nice. Never new what an advantage aluminum had over plastic!! So kids take it from me if your wheels are plastic it is time to pimp your crawler with a new set of aluminum shoes

OK new pics. I got my axles Mounted up today with my wheels and tires. I think I made my upper links a little long so I am going to take them off and shave them down a bit. Other than that I think it is looking good. Can't Waite to get the rest of my parts and get this thing running!
